Gender studies as an interdisciplinary academic basis for effective scientific communication in modern social sciences and humanities

Abstract

The article analyzes results of the second international scientific and practical conference “Gender Resources of Sustainable Development. International and Russian experience” (Moscow, March 4, 2022), which became an urgent response to the request to create an interdisciplinary academic platform at the RSUH on issues of the gender research and effective communication in modern social sciences and humanities. The list of participants and scope of their representation at that conference once again confirmed the continuing interest in gender studies, as well as an attempt to comprehend the implementation of the principle of gender equality in the global sustainable development agenda. Leading gender scientists from academic structures and the university science presented their informative reports, which reflect the deep connection with the Russian historical and national context of the state of gender, as well as taking into account the international experience of gender studies. The participants were particularly interested in the topics of national mechanisms for gender equality, gender characteristics of the power political perception in various historical epochs, the socio-economic status of Russian women as a factor of demographic development, the transformation of subjective characteristics and gender aspects of modern migration processes. The work was carried out within the framework of the RSUH project “Gender Studies as an interdisciplinary academic basis for effective scientific communication in modern social sciences and humanities”.
